FAQs
Does the HJC Valeco 2 come in different sizes?
Yes, it is available in a range of sizes to accommodate different head circumferences; check your specific model's size chart.
Is the padding removable for washing?
The Valeco 2 uses the COOLPATH system which replaces much of the traditional padding, but internal components can be cleaned gently with mild soap and water.
Can I wear this helmet for gravel or mountain biking?
While designed primarily for road cycling, its lightweight and cooling features make it suitable for gravel riding, though it lacks a visor found on MTB-specific helmets.
What is the weight of the helmet?
The Valeco 2 weighs approximately 225g, making it a very lightweight option for long-distance riding.
Is the helmet wind tunnel tested?
Yes, the HJC Valeco 2 has been wind tunnel tested to optimize both aerodynamic efficiency and noise reduction.
Does it have reflective features?
Yes, the helmet includes a reflective sticker to help improve rider visibility in low-light conditions.
Troubleshooting
Helmet feels loose even when adjusted.
Ensure the 5-step snap fit is positioned correctly on the rear of the helmet to provide the necessary tension for the self-adjusting system.
Sunglasses do not stay securely in the holder.
Verify that your sunglasses arms are compatible with the specific slot width provided on the Valeco 2, and push them firmly until they click or rest securely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, utilize the 5-step snap fit system to adjust the tension of the SELFIT mechanism before your first ride. Ensure the wide dividers are positioned just below your ears to keep the strap system stable. For maintenance, clean the exterior with a soft damp cloth. Since the COOLPATH system replaces standard padding, keep the internal air channels free of debris to maintain optimal airflow. Always inspect the helmet after any impact, even if no damage is visible.
